Buying this at 14 weeks. Am I crazy

paleblueeyes · December 2013

So I already had a baby bed ( was mine) I put it up around 8 weeks I think. I wanted to make sure everything was there. Thought I was crazy for that.

Now I bought a stroller from a friend at 14 weeks. I really wanted to wait until like 20 weeks. Once I had the stroller I thought omg this is happening. Lol. My husband even said the same thing. "Oh my goodness, I feel like a parent with this baby stuff in the car."

I haven't even told My family yet.

So anyone else by anything?

We bought a stroller/carseat combo on Black Friday because it was a GREAT deal! We had to buy one eventually anyways.

I bought a Moby wrap. It was 1/2 off so I snatched it up. Otherwise I've just been browsing baby items. I feel pretty overwhelmed when I go look at stuff. No idea where to start so I haven't really bought anything yet.

We bought a stroller and car seat on black friday

My mom bought me a diaper bag today. She's giving it to me for Christmas. This is my third baby.

This is our first but we've been trying for years and finally got our BFP with IVF so friends and family have been very generous. We are only 13 weeks but a friend dropped off a brand new still packaged stroller/ travel system (she was given 2 at her shower this summer and didn't take the other back) we won a large car seat on Black Friday for when the baby is older from Buy Buy Baby. Another friend dropped off a jogging stroller and crib along with tons of toys and clothes. It's crazy how much stuff we have! It really does make it feel real :-)

We're buying as the sales come. Why miss an opportunity to get something cheaper now? Lol.
We're also getting a lot of gifts from people, luckily. The only thing we've really bought for ourselves is the baby room furniture which we got an INCREDIBLE deal on. Saved us 1500€.
When we get to the third trimester, I'm planning to splurge a bit on a rocking chair...
But yeah- you're not crazy at all lol. I don't want to have to go shopping for all the baby stuff when I'm huge.

We bought a baby swing from DH's cousin, it was an amazing deal so couldn't pass it up. Other than that I have held off, I keep telling myself that I am just waiting until the stroller and car seat I want go on sale then I will probably go all out.

MrsRage · December 2013

Oh wow I'm surprised with how much everyone has bought already! We have nothing. I didn't want to start too early in case something didn't work out. Perhaps in a month or so we can start thinking about it.

mrsgyaray · December 2013

We have 2 onesies a bottle I got from Motherhood in a goodie bag and a stuffed lamb.

feistybear · December 2013

We bought our stroller at 12 weeks with DD. It was on sale so we jumped on it.

nunzchucks · December 2013

I got my double BOB for a steal on Craigslist at 11 weeks.

StacyH0507 · December 2013

We have our stroller and carseats and my parents bought us our cribs so far!

Mrs_D_in_KY · December 2013

With our son, we bought a stroller car seat combo when I had just found out I was pregnant. After first trimester we wound up buying the crib and bedding. DH then painted the nursery and had the room together all by time I was 16 weeks. This go round is irrelevant as we have everything from our son. We just need a new infant seat.

I bought a pair of $.87 mittens from Wal-mart yesterday. Does that count?

EmbracingChange · December 2013

I bought the Graco travel system on sale on Black Friday and a baby book. I haven't filled anything in yet, but its always the first thing I buy when I get a + test

Luna C · December 2013

I refuse to buy anything until we get the blood test results from our NT. I'm not supersitious per se, but I'm a bit terrified that if something horrible happens and I have a bunch of baby stuff in the room that used to be my office and is now becoming a nursery ... I'd probably lose my mind.

mrs_drc_rn · December 2013

This is our first so we literally have nothing haha I bought a few boxes of diapers on sale and also got a nursing pillow and baby sling for free. I just started our registry and I'm sure will buy more things here and there.

cristykaye · December 2013

I've been buyin things I see on sale. I got a pretty generous cash gift from my mothers boss as soon as she found out we were pregnant. I have been just buying the big stuff as I find it. I have already had the offer to have 2 seperate showers thrown so after that I will use the left over money to buy what I need. I have bought a bassinet, bed, and a diaper bag. I'm about to order the travel system I want. I'm looking for an old dresser bc I want to paint it green!

LadyMacaron · December 2013

I bought a vintage dresser and refinished it. We are using it as a changing table and it is so beautiful! I also bought a Rock n Play and a snuggabunny bouncer for super cheap during black Friday (paid $55 all together). I've also bought some bibs, a nightlight, and a few little outfits. I'm ready to buy our carseat and stroller, but we are waiting to see if any end of the year sales come up.

We found a great vintage dresser for DD. I left the outside as it was in pretty perfect condition but I painted the inside of the drawers bright purple, its pretty awesome. It has the original hardware and the drawer pulls are bows, not cheesy floofie things but retro and awesome. I love vintage and antique furniture and refinishing/re-purposing is a hobby of mine.

Me too! Now I have to share my re-do!

We are set on baby boy clothes, everytime my fiancé goes to Walmart for anything he comes how with a few outfits. For "encouragement". Lol. As if I had a damn choice haha.

LegalLadyBug · December 2013

I bought a gym, bouncer, mobile, and jumper so far. They were hugely discounted on Amazon flash sales so I couldn't pass them up. I'm high risk and while my fingers are crossed that everything goes well and I'm not hospitalized or put on bed rest, I am getting as much baby shopping done now that I can, just incase.

Adrianneo1 · December 2013

I wish I could buy stuff were hopefully moving back home to Michigan to be with family in a few months fingers crossed. So I can't buy anything untill I know so we don't have to move it to.

Gbseder · December 2013

Found an amazing new and unused Dutailier glider and ottoman on craigslist for only $225!! Only 14 weeks today but couldn't turn down the amazing deal!! I know it's early but refused to turn that down!! Picking it up tomorrow morning! Hoping to store it at my mom's house for a while though!
